In the first nine months, we delivered 24% sales growth and 22% operating profit growth.
前 9 個月,我們的銷售額成長了 24%,營業利潤成長了 22%。
This reflects continued scaling of the company, and we now reach around three times more patients with our GLP-1 treatments compared to three years ago.
這反映了公司規模的不斷擴大,與三年前相比,我們現在接受 GLP-1 治療的患者數量增加了約三倍。
Increased visibility on the full year performance has led us to narrow our guidance range.
全年業績可見度的提高導致我們縮小了指導範圍。
I would like to start this call by going through the performance highlights across our strategic aspirations before handing over the word to my colleagues.
在向我的同事傳達訊息之前,我想先回顧一下我們策略願景的績效亮點。
Starting with our focus on purpose and sustainability.
從我們對目標和永續性的關注開始。
We are now serving more than 43 million patients with our diabetes and obesity treatments.
目前,我們正在為超過 4,300 萬名患者提供糖尿病和肥胖治療。

Our total carbon emissions rose by 34% compared to the first nine months of 2023.
與 2023 年前 9 個月相比,我們的碳排放總量增加了 34%。
This was primarily driven by our increased investments in capital expenditure to meet the high demand of our treatments.
這主要是由於我們增加了資本支出投資,以滿足治療的高需求。
To uphold our commitment of being a sustainable employer, we expanded the number of women in senior leadership positions to 41% compared to 40.5% 12 months ago.
為了履行我們成為永續雇主的承諾,我們將擔任高階領導職位的女性人數從 12 個月前的 40.5% 增加到 41%。

In R&D, we had several exciting readouts this quarter, including the Phase III results from SOUL, Stride and Essence.
在研發方面,本季我們發布了一些令人興奮的結果,包括 SOUL、Stride 和 Essence 的 III 期結果。
These results are contributing to an already strong body of evidence on the cardiometabolic profile of semaglutide.
這些結果為索馬魯肽心臟代謝特徵提供了強有力的證據。
Martin will come back to this and our overall R&D milestones later.

In October, Novo Nordisk announced the line results from the SOUL trial.
10 月,諾和諾德公佈了 SOUL 試驗的生產線結果。
SOUL was a large cardiovascular outcomes trial and was conducted across 33 countries and more than 400 investigational sites. 9,650 people were enrolled and randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive oral semaglutide 14-milligram or placebo on top of standard of care.
SOUL 是一項大型心血管結局試驗,在 33 個國家和 400 多個研究地點進行。 9,650 名患者以 1:1 的比例隨機入組,在標準治療的基礎上接受口服索馬魯肽 14 毫克或安慰劑。
The eligibility criteria were designed to include patients with type 2 diabetes with established cardiovascular disease as defined by primary myocardial infarction, stroke, disease and or chronic kidney disease.
資格標準旨在包括患有既定心血管疾病(定義為原發性心肌梗塞、中風、疾病和/或慢性腎臟疾病)的第 2 型糖尿病患者。
Importantly, as part of standard of care, 49% of patients received an ALT-2 inhibitor at some point during the trial with a higher proportion in the placebo group than in the semaglutide group.
重要的是,作為標準治療的一部分,49% 的患者在試驗期間的某個時間點接受了 ALT-2 抑制劑,安慰劑組的比例高於索馬魯肽組。
The primary objective of the trial was to demonstrate the priority of oral semaglutide versus placebo on top of standard of care for prevention of the primary endpoint of major adverse cardiovascular event.
該試驗的主要目的是證明口服索馬魯肽相對於安慰劑在預防主要不良心血管事件主要終點的護理標準之上的優先性。
The key secondary objectives of the trial was to compare the effects of oral semaglutide to placebo with regards to mortality, renal function, peripheral artery disease, glucose metabolism and body weight.
本試驗的主要次要目標是比較口服索馬魯肽與安慰劑在死亡率、腎功能、週邊動脈疾病、葡萄糖代謝和體重的影響。
I'm very pleased to announce that SOUL achieved this primary endpoint and that oral semaglutide demonstrated the 14% reduction in major adverse cardiovascular events versus placebo.
我非常高興地宣布,SOUL 實現了這一主要終點,口服索馬魯肽與安慰劑相比,主要不良心血管事件減少了 14%。
All components of the primary endpoint contributed to the overall cardiovascular risk reduction.
主要終點的所有組成部分都有助於整體心血管風險的降低。
Given the extensive use of SGLT2 inhibitors, which are independently associated with cardiovascular benefits and are included as part of the standard of care, we find that the overall risk reduction on top of standard of care aligns broadly with other semaglutide outcomes trials.
鑑於 SGLT2 抑制劑的廣泛使用,其與心血管益處獨立相關,並納入標準治療的一部分,我們發現在標準治療基礎上的整體風險降低與其他索馬魯肽結局試驗大致一致。
We are pleased that for patients who prefer an all GLP-1 agonist, SOUL has demonstrated that oral semaglutide provides a superior cardiovascular risk reduction compared to placebo on top of standard of care.
我們很高興地看到,對於喜歡全 GLP-1 激動劑的患者,SOUL 已經證明,在標準護理的基礎上,口服索馬魯肽與安慰劑相比,可以更好地降低心血管風險。
In the trial, oral semaglutide appeared to have a safe and well-tolerated profile.
在試驗中,口服索馬魯肽似乎具有安全性和良好的耐受性。
This is in line with previous trials investigating all semaglutide.
這與先前調查所有索馬魯肽的試驗一致。
We expect to file for regulatory approval of a cardiovascular label indication expansion for oral semaglutide around the turn of the year.
我們預計在年底左右申請監管部門批准擴大口服索馬魯肽的心血管標籤適應症。

On November 1, Novo Nordisk announced the headline results from Part 1 of the ongoing ESSENCE trial.
11 月 1 日,諾和諾德公佈了正在進行的 ESSENCE 試驗第 1 部分的主要結果。
ESSENCE is a Phase III trial evaluating the effect of once weekly subcutaneous semaglutide 2.4 milligrams in add-ons with MASH and moderate to advanced liver fibrosis.
ESSENCE 是一項 III 期試驗,評估每週一次皮下注射 2.4 毫克索馬魯肽合併 MASH 和中度至晚期肝纖維化的效果。
ESSENCE is being conducted across 37 countries and over 400 sites.
ESSENCE 正在 37 個國家/地區的 400 多個地點進行。
It's a two-part trial with 1,200 MASH participants were randomized in a 2:1 fashion to receive either semaglutide 2.4 milligram or placebo on turbo standard of care for a total of 240 weeks.
這是一項由兩部分組成的試驗,1,200 名 MASH 參與者以 2:1 的方式隨機接受 2.4 毫克索馬魯肽或安慰劑的渦輪標準護理,為期總共 240 週。
In Part 1, the objective was to demonstrate that treatment with semaglutide 2.4 milligram improves liver histology at week 72 in the first 800 randomized participants.
第 1 部分的目的是證明 2.4 毫克索馬魯肽治療可改善前 800 名隨機參與者在第 72 週時的肝臟組織學特徵。
In Part 2, the active is to demonstrate that treatment with semaglutide 2.4 milligrams lower the risk of liver-related clinical events compared to placebo at 240 weeks in 1,200 randomized OpEx.
第 2 部分的主要任務是在 1,200 例隨機 OpEx 中證明,與安慰劑相比,240 週時使用 2.4 毫克索馬魯肽治療可降低肝臟相關臨床事件的風險。

I'm very pleased to announce that the ESSENCE trial achieved both primary endpoints and demonstrate statistically significant and superior improvements in both MASH resolution and liver fibrosis with semaglutide 2.4 milligram compared to placebo.
我很高興地宣布,ESSENCE 試驗實現了兩個主要終點,並證明與安慰劑相比,2.4 毫克索馬魯肽在 MASH 消退和肝纖維化方面具有統計意義和卓越的改善。
By week 72 from baseline, 37% of people treated with semaglutide 2.4 milligram achieved improved labor fibrosis with no worsening of Tier 2 hepatitis, while 63% achieved resolution of Tier 2 hepatitis with no worsening of labor fibrosis.
從基線到第72 週,接受2.4 毫克索馬魯肽治療的患者中,37% 的患者分娩纖維化得到改善,且2 級肝炎沒有惡化,而63% 的患者2 級肝炎得到緩解,且分娩纖維化沒有惡化。
To put this into perspective, the ISM Phase III results are the best Phase III results within the MASH area to date.
從這個角度來看,ISM III 期結果是 MASH 領域迄今為止最好的 III 期結果。
In the trial, semaglutide 2.4 milligram appears to have a safe, well-tolerated profile, which is in line with previous semaglutide 2.4 milligram plans.
在試驗中,索馬魯肽 2.4 毫克似乎具有安全、耐受性良好的特點,這與先前的索馬魯肽 2.4 毫克計劃一致。
We're very pleased about the ESSENCE clinical trial results and the potential of semaglutide to help people living with MASH.
我們對 ESSENCE 臨床試驗結果以及索馬魯肽幫助 MASH 患者的潛力感到非常高興。
Among the many people with overweight obesity, one in three live with MASH.
在眾多超重肥胖患者中,三分之一患有 MASH。
This has a serious impact on the health and represents a significant unmet need.
這對健康產生嚴重影響,並且是一個重大的未滿足的需求。
We believe that with the ESSENCE data, semaglutide is well positioned as a foundational treatment for people with MASH at fibrosis Stage 2 and 3, and offers further additional benefits, including weight loss, glycemic control, cardiovascular risk reduction relevant for this population.
我們相信,根據ESSENCE 數據,索馬魯肽非常適合作為纖維化2 期和3 期MASH 患者的基礎治療,並提供進一步的額外益處,包括與該族群相關的體重減輕、血糖控制、降低心血管風險。
We expect to file for regulatory approvals in the US and EU in the first half of 2025.
我們預計將於 2025 年上半年在美國和歐盟申請監管批准。
The detailed results from ESSENCE will be presented at AASLD, the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases, where two of the ESSENCE trials will continue with expected readout in 2029.
ESSENCE 的詳細結果將在美國肝病研究協會 AASLD 上公佈,其中兩項 ESSENCE 試驗將繼續進行,預計將於 2029 年公佈結果。

Now I would like to bring your attention to some of the quarterly and upcoming R&D events, which include anticipated trial readouts and initiations for this year.
現在我想提請您注意一些季度和即將舉行的研發活動,其中包括今年預期的試驗結果和啟動。
During Q3 in diabetes, the functional outcomes trial, STRIDE, was successfully completed.
在糖尿病第三季度,功能結果試驗 STRIDE 成功完成。
This STRIDE trial is a 52-week trial comparing to magnetite 1.0 milligram with placebo on top of standard of care.
這項 STRIDE 試驗為期 52 週,與標準護理基礎上使用 1.0 毫克磁鐵礦和安慰劑進行比較。
The trial included people living with type 2 diabetes and peripheral arterial disease with intermittent cloudification and a condition characterized by muscle pace in the legs during physical activity.
該試驗納入了患有第 2 型糖尿病和周邊動脈疾病的患者,這些患者伴隨間歇性渾濁以及體力活動期間腿部肌肉節奏加快的症狀。
The primary functional endpoint is measured by constant load treadmill test.
主要功能終點透過恆定負載跑步機測試來測量。
It is important to note that the treadmill test is not equivalent to the six-minute walking test on a flat service as we know from, for example, the step heart failure studies.
值得注意的是,跑步機測試並不等同於在平坦的地面上進行六分鐘步行測試,正如我們從台階心臟衰竭研究中所了解的那樣。
The constant load treadmill test in STRIDE is performed at a single work rate of 3 kilometers per hour at an inclination of 12%, which corresponds to walking up a steep hill at a constant pace.
STRIDE中的恆載跑步機測試以每小時3公里的單次工作速度、12%的坡度進行,相當於以恆定的配速走上陡峭的山坡。
After 52 weeks, the trial achieved its primary endpoint by demonstrating a statistically significant and superior improvement in maximum walking distance of 13% for people treating with semaglutide 1.0 milligram compared to placebo.
52 週後,該試驗達到了主要終點,證明與安慰劑相比,使用 1.0 毫克索馬魯肽治療的患者最大步行距離有統計學上顯著且卓越的改善,達到 13%。
The 13% improvement represents immediate change in maximum walking distance of 26 meters and a mean change of 40 meters, which is considered clinically relevant.
13% 的改善意味著最大步行距離立即改變 26 米,平均改變 40 米,被認為具有臨床相關性。
In the semaglutide arm, the walking -- the maximum walking distance increased by 60 -- sorry, 21% from baseline of 185 meters.
在索馬魯肽組中,步行——最大步行距離增加了 60——抱歉,比 185 公尺的基線增加了 21%。
While in the placebo arm, it increased by 8% from a baseline of 186 meters.
而在安慰劑組中,它比 186 公尺的基線增加了 8%。
Overall, the Stride results are good news for people living with peripheral artery disease and type 2 diabetes whose everyday life is impacted by reducing walking capacity and pain.
總體而言,Stride 結果對於患有周邊動脈疾病和 2 型糖尿病的患者來說是個好消息,因為他們的日常生活因步行能力下降和疼痛而受到影響。
Novo Nordisk expects to file for regulatory approval of a label expansion for Ozempic in the US and EU in the first half of 2025.
諾和諾德預計將於 2025 年上半年就 Ozempic 在美國和歐盟的標籤擴展申請監管部門批准。
The successfully completed SOUL and STRIDE trials adds to the growing body of evidence underlying the cardiovascular benefits of semaglutide.
成功完成的 SOUL 和 STRIDE 試驗為索馬魯肽對心血管的益處提供了越來越多的證據。
To continue within the diabetes domain, a Phase II trial has been initiated with once-weekly subcutaneous and once-daily oral amycretin in people with type 2 diabetes in Q3.
為了繼續在糖尿病領域開展工作,第三季已在第 2 型糖尿病患者中啟動了一項 II 期試驗,每週一次皮下注射和每日一次口服阿黴素。
And we're anticipating the Phase II readout for monlunabant in diabetes kidney disease in Q4.
我們預計 monlunabant 治療糖尿病腎病變的 II 期試驗結果將在第四季度公佈。
Lastly, within diabetes, we are awaiting the regulatory decisions on the submitted flow data in US and EU in the first half of 2025.
最後,在糖尿病領域,我們正在等待 2025 年上半年美國和歐盟對提交的流量資料所做的監管決定。
Within obesity, the European Medicines Agency has adopted a positive opinion for an update of the Wegovy label in EU.
在肥胖方面,歐洲藥品管理局對歐盟 Wegovy 標籤的更新採取了積極的意見。
The labels update incorporates data showing that Wegovy, when added to standard of care, can reduce heart failure-related symptoms and improve physical limitations and exercise function in people with obesity-related FP with overdue to diabetes.
標籤更新包含的數據表明,當將 Wegovy 添加到標準護理中時,可以減少因肥胖相關的 FP 且因糖尿病而過期的患者的心臟衰竭相關症狀,並改善身體限制和運動功能。
The positive opinion is based on results from the STEP HFpEF and the STEP HFpEF DM trials.
此正面意見是基於 STEP HFpEF 和 STEP HFpEF DM 試驗的結果。
Third, a positive opinion was also issued based on data from the STEP 9 file in people with obesity and knee or throat arthritis.
第三,根據 STEP 9 文件中肥胖和膝關節炎或咽喉關節炎患者的數據,也發表了正面的意見。
In Q3, the Phase IIa trial with modular was completed.
第三季度,完成了模組化IIa期試驗。
As previously communicated, we expect to initiate a larger Phase IIb trial in obesity to further investigate dosing and the safety profile of monlunabant over a longer duration in a global population in 2025.
如同先前所傳達的,我們預計將於 2025 年啟動一項更大規模的肥胖 IIb 期試驗,以進一步研究 monlunabant 在全球人群中較長持續時間內的劑量和安全性。
We have also initiated a Phase I trial with once weekly subcutaneous
我們也啟動了每週一次皮下注射的 I 期試驗
[amylin 355].
[胰淀素355]。
The 12-week trial is investigating safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of different doses of Amlin 355 in people with overweight obesity.
這項為期 12 週的試驗正在調查不同劑量的 Amlin 355 在超重肥胖族群中的安全性、耐受性、藥物動力學和藥效學。
Looking ahead, later in Q4, we anticipate the first Phase III results for (inaudible), namely from the REDEFINE 1 study.
展望未來,我們預計將在第四季度晚些時候獲得第一個 III 期結果(聽不清楚),即來自 REDEFINE 1 研究的結果。
The second pivotal trial for (inaudible) REDEFINE 2 will read out in the first half of 2025.
(聽不清楚)REDEFINE 2 的第二次關鍵試驗將於 2025 年上半年宣讀。
As we approach the year-end, we're also looking forward to the Phase III results for STEP UP involving semaglutide 7.2 milligram.
隨著年底的臨近,我們也期待涉及 7.2 毫克索馬魯肽的 STEP UP III 期結果。
And finally, in the first half of '25, we're expecting the Phase I readout for subcutaneous amucretin in obesity.
最後,在 25 年上半年,我們期待皮下注射 amucretin 治療肥胖症的 I 期結果。
Within rare disease in Q3, we have initiated a Phase I trial with innerweights and oral once-daily antibody fragment for the treatment of hemophilia A.
在第三季的罕見疾病中,我們啟動了一項 I 期試驗,使用體重和每日一次口服抗體片段來治療 A 型血友病。
Moreover, different Tier 5 trials with MIMA was successfully completed.
此外,MIMA 的不同 Tier 5 試驗也已成功完成。
The trial was an open-label safety study in people with hemophilia A and demonstrated that switching from emicizumab treatment to [mesosomal] treatment appear to be safe and well tolerated.
該試驗是一項針對 A 型血友病患者的開放標籤安全性研究,顯示從艾美珠單抗治療轉為 [mesosomal] 治療似乎是安全且耐受性良好的。
Lastly, within rare disease, we have successfully completed the Phase II interim part of the viscous Phase II/III trial in people with sickle cell disease.
最後,在罕見疾病領域,我們已經成功完成了針對鐮狀細胞疾病患者的黏性 II/III 期試驗的 II 期中期部分。
The interim analysis is proof of concept for etavopivat in single cell disease and etavopivat appear to have a safe and well-tolerated profile.
中期分析證明了 etavopivat 在單細胞疾病中的概念,並且 etavopivat 似乎具有安全且耐受性良好的特徵。
The Phase III part of the ubiscos trial is currently ongoing with the expected readout in 2026.
ubiscos 試驗的 III 期部分目前正在進行中,預計將於 2026 年公佈結果。
With that, over to you, Karsten.

Please turn to the next slide.
請翻到下一張投影片。
In the first nine months of 2024, our sales grew by 23% in Danish kroner and 24% at constant exchange rates, driven by both operating units.
2024 年頭 9 個月,在兩個營運部門的推動下,我們的銷售額(以丹麥克朗計算)成長了 23%,以固定匯率計算成長了 24%。
In the US, sales growth was positively impacted by gross to net sales adjustments related to prior years and phasing of rebates in 2023.
在美國,銷售成長受到與往年相關的總銷售額與淨銷售額調整以及 2023 年分階段回扣的正面影響。
Sales growth has resulted in periodic supply constraints and related drug shortage notifications across a number of products and geographies.
銷售成長導致許多產品和地區出現週期性供應限制和相關藥品短缺通知。
The gross margin increased to 84.6% compared to 84.5% in 2023.
毛利率由2023年的84.5%增至84.6%。
The increase is mainly driven by positive price impact due to the gross to net sales adjustments related to prior years in the US and a positive product mix.
這一增長主要是由於美國前幾年的總銷售額與淨銷售額調整以及積極的產品組合所帶來的正面價格影響。
This is partially funded by costs related to the ongoing capacity expansions.
部分資金來自與持續產能擴張相關的成本。
Sales and distribution costs increased by 10% in both Danish kroner and at constant exchange rates.
以丹麥克朗和固定匯率計算的銷售和分銷成本增加了 10%。
In North America operations, the cost increase is mainly driven by promotional activities related to Wegovy, while in international operations, the increase is mainly related to obesity care market development activities, Wegovy launch activities as well as promotional activities for GLP-1 diabetes products.
在北美業務中,成本增加主要由Wegovy相關的促銷活動推動,而在國際業務中,成本增加主要與肥胖護理市場開發活動、Wegovy上市活動以及GLP-1糖尿病產品的促銷活動有關。
Additionally, the increase in sales and distribution costs is impacted by adjustments to legal provisions in the second quarter of 2023.
此外,銷售和分銷成本的增加也受到 2023 年第二季法律規定調整的影響。
Research and development costs increased by 56%, both measured in Danish kroner and at constant exchange rates.
以丹麥克朗和固定匯率計算,研發成本增加了 56%。
The increase in costs is mainly reflecting increased late-stage clinical trial activity and increased early research activities as well as the impairment loss related to intangible assets, including ocedurenone at DKK5.7 billion.
成本的增加主要反映了後期臨床試驗活動的增加和早期研究活動的增加,以及與無形資產相關的減損損失,其中包括 57 億丹麥克朗的 ocedurenone。
Administration costs increased by 9%, both in Danish kroner and at constant exchange rates.
以丹麥克朗和固定匯率計算的管理成本增加了 9%。
Operating profit increased by 21% measured in Danish kroner and by 22% at constant exchange rates.
以丹麥克朗計算的營業利潤成長了 21%,以固定匯率計算則成長了 22%。
Operating profit is impacted by the impairment loss related to Osidurinon of DKK5.7 billion.
營業利潤受到與 Osidurinon 相關的 57 億丹麥克朗減損損失的影響。
As a consequence, EBITDA increased by 28% measured in Danish kroner and by 30% at constant exchange rates.
因此,以丹麥克朗計算的 EBITDA 成長了 28%,以固定匯率計算則成長了 30%。
Net financial items showed a net gain of DKK32 million compared to a net gain of DKK1.246 billion last year.
淨財務專案淨收益為 3,200 萬丹麥克朗,而去年的淨收益為 12.46 億丹麥克朗。
The effective tax rate was 20.6% in the first 9 months of 2024 compared to 19.9% in the first nine months of 2023.
2024 年前 9 個月的有效稅率為 20.6%,而 2023 年前 9 個月的有效稅率為 19.9%。
Net profit increased by 18%, and diluted earnings per share increased by 19% to DKK16.29. Net profit and diluted earnings per share are negatively impacted by the DKK5.7 billion impairment of ocedurenone.
淨利成長 18%,攤薄後每股收益成長 19%,達 16.29 丹麥克朗。淨利和稀釋每股盈餘受到 ocedurenone 57 億丹麥克朗減損的負面影響。
Free cash flow realized in 2024 was DKK71.8 billion compared to DKK75.6 billion in the first nine months of 2023.
2024 年實現的自由現金流為 718 億丹麥克朗,而 2023 年前 9 個月為 756 億丹麥克朗。
The lower free cash flow reflects increasing capital expenditure partially countered by net cash generated from operating activities.
自由現金流下降反映了資本支出的增加,部分被經營活動產生的淨現金抵銷。
Capital expenditure for property, plant and equipment was DKK31.1 billion compared to DKK16.4 billion in 2023.
不動產、廠房及設備的資本支出為 311 億丹麥克朗,而 2023 年為 164 億丹麥克朗。
This was primarily driven by investments in additional capacity for API, production and fill/finish capacity for both current and future injectable and oral products.
這主要是由於 API 產能、當前和未來注射劑和口服產品的生產和填充/成品產能的投資所致。
The extensive increase in capital expenditure underscores our dedication to internal growth initiatives as part of our capital allocation strategy.
資本支出的大幅增加凸顯了我們致力於內部成長計劃,作為我們資本配置策略的一部分。
Our number one priority is to invest in internal growth opportunities followed by returning capital to shareholders through dividends and pursuing business development of duties.
我們的首要任務是投資內部成長機會,然後透過股息向股東返還資本並追求業務發展。
Finally, we view the share buyback program as a flexible measure contingent on the first 3 priorities.
最後,我們將股票回購計畫視為取決於前三個優先事項的彈性措施。
This allows us to effectively distribute potential excess cash.
這使我們能夠有效地分配潛在的多餘現金。
Please go to the next slide.
請轉到下一張投影片。
We continued the growth momentum in 2024 and have narrowed our sales growth guidance to between 23% and 27% at constant exchange rates.
我們在 2024 年持續維持成長勢頭,並將以固定匯率計算的銷售成長指引縮小至 23% 至 27%。
The guidance reflects expectations for sales growth in both North America Operations and International operations, mainly driven by volume growth of GLP-1 based treatments for both obesity and diabetes care.
該指引反映了對北美業務和國際業務銷售成長的預期,這主要是由基於 GLP-1 的肥胖和糖尿病治療療法的銷售成長所推動的。
Following the expectation of continued volume growth and capacity limitations at some manufacturing sites, the outlook also reflects continued periodic supply constraints and related drug shortage notifications across a number of products and geographies.
繼預計一些生產基地的產量持續成長和產能限制之後,前景也反映出一些產品和地區持續的周期性供應限制和相關藥品短缺通知。
Novo Nordisk is investing in internal and external capacity to increase supply both short and long term.
諾和諾德正在投資內部和外部產能,以增加短期和長期供應。
Operating profit growth is now expected to be between 21% and 27% at constant exchange rates.
以固定匯率計算,目前預計營業利潤成長在 21% 至 27% 之間。
Capital expenditure is still expected to be around DKK35 billion in 2024, reflecting expansion of the global supply chain.
預計 2024 年資本支出仍約為 350 億丹麥克朗,反映了全球供應鏈的擴張。
The free cash flow is now expected to be between DKK57 million and DKK65 billion, reflecting the sales growth, a favorable impact from rebates in the US countered by investments in capital expenditure.
目前,自由現金流預計在 5,700 萬丹麥克朗至 650 億丹麥克朗之間,反映了銷售成長、美國回扣的有利影響以及資本支出投資的抵銷。
The updated cash flow expectation mainly reflects phasing of payments related to rebates in the US as well as timing of investments related to capital expenditure.
更新後的現金流量預期主要反映了與美國回扣相關的付款階段以及與資本支出相關的投資時機。
Income under the 340B program in the US has been partially recognized.
美國340B計劃下的收入已部分確認。
One ruling from the US Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit remains pending and along with the DC Circuit, ruling may be subject to further discretionary appellate review before the US Supreme Court.
美國第七巡迴上訴法院的一項裁決仍懸而未決,與華盛頓特區巡迴法院一樣,該裁決可能需要接受美國最高法院進一步的酌情上訴審查。
Depending on the outcome of any subsequent rulings and appeals in these matters, there may be a material impact on Novo Nordisk's financial position, net sales and cash flow.
根據這些事項的後續裁決和上訴的結果,可能會對諾和諾德的財務狀況、淨銷售額和現金流產生重大影響。
The Catalent transaction is still expected to close towards the end of the year and financial impacts have not been included in the financial guidance.
康泰倫特交易預計仍將在年底前完成,財務影響尚未納入財務指引中。
Consented on the timing of closing, the acquisition is expected to have a low single-digit negative impact on operating profit growth in 2024 and low to mid-single-digit impact in 2025.
在完成時間達成協議後,預計此次收購將對 2024 年營業利潤成長產生低個位數的負面影響,並在 2025 年產生低至中個位數的影響。
That covers the outlook for 2024.
這涵蓋了 2024 年的展望。

請翻到最後一張投影片。
We are very pleased with the sales growth in the first 9 months of 2024.
我們對 2024 年前 9 個月的銷售成長感到非常滿意。
The growth is driven by increasing demand for our GLP-1 based diabetes and obesity treatments, reflecting the continued scaling of our supply chain.
這一增長是由對我們基於 GLP-1 的糖尿病和肥胖治療的需求不斷增長所推動的,反映了我們供應鏈的不斷擴大。
And we are serving more patients than ever before.
我們正在為比以往更多的患者提供服務。
Then R&D, we're very pleased with the readouts across our semaglutide portfolio, including the SOUL trial in people living with diabetes and cardiovascular disease, and the ESSENCE trial in people living with MASH.
然後是研發,我們對索馬魯肽產品組合的結果非常滿意,包括針對糖尿病和心血管疾病患者的 SOUL 試驗,以及針對 MASH 患者的 ESSENCE 試驗。
Lastly, we look forward to a number of exciting readouts over the next quarter.
最後,我們期待下個季度出現一些令人興奮的數據。

I'm going to ask one on CagriSema.
我要去 CagriSema 問一個。
I think in the press, you've been reiterating your confidence in hitting the 25% weight loss by.
我認為在媒體上,您一直在重申您對實現 25% 減肥目標的信心。
I get lots of questions from investors of how you bridge between that number and the number that was reported in earlier clinical trials is obviously at an earlier time point.
我從投資者那裡得到了很多問題,關於如何在這個數字和早期臨床試驗中報告的數字之間建立橋樑,顯然是在更早的時間點。
So I know you've mentioned that's based on internal modeling assumptions.
所以我知道您提到這是基於內部建模假設的。
But can you help us understand a little bit more in terms of the details that underpins that modeling and again, your confidence on hitting that.
但是您能否幫助我們更了解支撐該建模的細節,以及您實現這一目標的信心。
Jacob Martin Rode - Head of Investor Relations

Martin Lange - Executive Vice President - Development
Martin Lange - Executive Vice President - Development
Yes.

Thank you very much, Richard.
非常感謝你,理查德。
So first of all, it's important to call out we have no new data.
首先,重要的是要指出我們沒有新數據。
And therefore, our confidence remains to be the same.
因此,我們的信心保持不變。
The way that we think about this is that we have three sets of data to look at from a modeling perspective.
我們思考這個問題的方式是,我們從建模的角度來看三組資料。
One is Phases I and II for CagriSema mono therapy, then Phase I/II for obesity and Kagoshima and thirdly, the Phase II mile for Kagoshima in type 2 diabetes.
第一個是 CagriSema 單一療法的 I 期和 II 期,然後是針對肥胖和鹿兒島的 I/II 期,第三是鹿兒島 2 型糖尿病的 II 期。
We can then apply our models, I would say, on this based on our extensive knowledge and experience within the obesity space, and we arrive then at the 25% weight loss.
我想說的是,我們可以基於我們在肥胖領域的豐富知識和經驗來應用我們的模型,然後我們就能達到 25% 的減肥效果。
Nothing has really changed there.
那裡什麼都沒有真正改變。
I've not seen any new data and basically, a couple of hours after I've seen that, you will be in the know.
我還沒有看到任何新數據,基本上,在我看到這些數據幾個小時後,您就會知道了。
So that's where we are today.

Two questions, please.
請教兩個問題。
Firstly, on Catalent, you've noted confidence and deal close by year-end.
首先,在康泰倫特,您注意到年底前的信心和交易。
I wonder if you could just give any more color on the process that drives that confidence, and confidence no delays or preliminary injunctions.
我想知道您是否可以對推動這種信心的過程提供更多的色彩,並且信心沒有延遲或初步禁令。
There's been a lot of market debate there.
那裡有很多市場爭論。
And then secondly, given the limited visibility we have on supply, I wonder if you're willing to just give some early indications of '25 growth and key pushes and pulls as we think about next year.
其次,鑑於我們對供應的了解有限,我想知道您是否願意提供一些有關 25 年增長的早期跡像以及我們對明年的考慮的關鍵推動和拉動。
I'm asking for a guide for perhaps a high-level commentary that you've made before, perhaps you could frame 2H '24, a decent indicator of growth in '25 or '24 absolute growth continuing to '25.
我正在尋求一個指南,也許您之前做過一個高級別評論,也許您可以構建 2H '24,一個不錯的 '25 增長指標或 '24 絕對增長持續到 '25。

Both of those to you, Karsten, firstly on the Catalent transaction and then on supply momentum in Novo Nordisk.
卡斯滕,這兩個問題首先是康泰倫特交易,然後是諾和諾德的供應勢頭。
Karsten Munk Knudsen - Chief Financial Officer, Executive Vice President
Karsten Munk Knudsen - Chief Financial Officer, Executive Vice President
Yes.
是的。
Thank you for those two relevant questions.
謝謝您提出這兩個相關問題。
So as to Catalent, we still expect the deal to close towards the end of this year.
至於康泰倫特,我們仍然預計該交易將在今年年底前完成。
And that statement is based on our ongoing interactions with the regulators in the different geographies.
該聲明是基於我們與不同地區監管機構的持續互動。
So from the get-go, we assessed that this transaction would not violate any antitrust legislation.
因此,我們從一開始就評估這筆交易不會違反任何反壟斷立法。
And since we have produced a lot of documents and had a number of attractions with regulators, and it's basically based on those infections that we believe, while not concluded at this point, we still believe that the deal will close by end of this year.
由於我們已經製作了大量文件,並對監管機構產生了許多吸引力,而且這基本上是基於我們認為的那些感染情況,雖然目前尚未得出結論,但我們仍然相信交易將在今年年底完成。
As to supply and 2025 guidance.
至於供應和 2025 年指導。
Then first of all, it's important to note, as we also showed in one of the prior slides by Camilla, that we scale the number of people we've reached with GLP-1s by a factor three over the last three years and now have around two-thirds of the market of GLP-1 treatments on Novo products.
首先,值得注意的是,正如我們在 Camilla 之前的一張幻燈片中所展示的那樣,我們在過去三年中將 GLP-1 覆蓋的人數擴大了三倍,現在已經約佔Novo 產品GLP-1治療市場的三分之二。
And that's scaling.
這就是規模化。
Of course, we're focused on continuing that type of scaling into the coming years.
當然,我們的重點是在未來幾年繼續進行這種類型的擴展。
And as to the more detailed 2025 outlook, the way I would frame it is that when you look at our absolute growth last year in 2023, which turned into a 36% growth rate last year.
至於更詳細的 2025 年展望,我的框架方式是,當你看看我們去年 2023 年的絕對成長時,去年的成長率為 36%。
That absolute growth is somewhat similar to the absolute growth we're delivering this year, yielding a mid-20s like growth.
這種絕對成長與我們今年實現的絕對成長有些相似,產生了 20 多歲左右的成長。
So to get a sense for what could grow mathematically maybe next year, then if you take that magnitude and apply it to a higher base, namely this year's sales, and then adjust for the tailwind we've had from favorable US gross to net adjustments related to prior years, then you end in the high teens in terms of sales growth next year against a forward-looking statement mathematically based, and we'll come back with more detailed guidance come early February 2025.
因此,為了了解明年可能會出現的數學成長,那麼如果你採用這個幅度並將其應用於更高的基數,即今年的銷售額,然後根據我們從有利的美國毛利率到淨調整的順勢進行調整與往年相關,那麼與基於數學的前瞻性陳述相比,明年的銷售成長將達到兩位數,我們將在2025 年2 月初提供更詳細的指導。

So I had two.
所以我有兩個。
First one, I wanted to ask you what your filing strategy for ESSENCE may be.
首先,我想問您 ESSENCE 的歸檔策略是什麼。
Are you looking at label expansion or filing it as a new product?
您是否正在考慮擴展標籤或將其作為新產品歸檔?
And then on maluumab, what do you think the Street is missing here?
然後,關於 maluumab,您認為華爾街在這裡缺少什麼?
You showed some favorable data, but I guess the Street isn't really picking up on that.
你展示了一些有利的數據,但我猜華爾街並沒有真正注意到這一點。
So what do you think is good about your studies here that people haven't really appreciated?
那麼你認為你在這裡學習的哪些優點是人們沒有真正欣賞的呢?

Thank you for those two questions, Louise.

Perhaps firstly, on ESSENCE data, Martin and Camilla can add a little bit on commercial potential, and then we move back to Martin for monlunabant data.
也許首先,在 ESSENCE 資料上,Martin 和 Camilla 可以增加一點商業潛力,然後我們回到 Martin 來取得 monlunabant 資料。
Martin Lange - Executive Vice President - Development
Martin Lange - Executive Vice President - Development
So the regulatory framework in the MASH space is that regulators at the end of the day, require hard end points, hard liver endpoints, but also hard cardiovascular endpoints because these patients also die from cardiovascular disease.
因此,MASH 領域的監管框架是,監管機構最終需要硬終點、硬肝臟終點,而且還需要硬心血管終點,因為這些患者也死於心血管疾病。
However, the authorities also acknowledge that there's a huge unmet need in this space.
然而,當局也承認這一領域存在巨大的未滿足需求。
And therefore, the agreement that we have with the regulators is that we could do this interim analysis based on liver histology, liver biopsies and histology on those liver biopsies, and we can get a conditional regulatory approval if we see improvement in steatosis and fibrosis.
因此,我們與監管機構達成的協議是,我們可以根據肝臟組織學、肝臟活檢和這些肝臟活檢的組織學進行臨時分析,如果我們看到脂肪變性和纖維化有所改善,我們可以獲得有條件的監管批准。
So based on the data that we've announced and that we've seen we aim to do a regulatory filing to get the approval for MASH and thereby also continuing the ESSENCE trial to get the harder endpoints in the coming years that the regulators will require.
因此,根據我們已經宣布的數據以及我們看到的數據,我們的目標是提交監管備案以獲得 MASH 的批准,從而繼續 ESSENCE 試驗,以獲得監管機構要求的未來幾年更難的終點。
I'll leave it to Camilla to talk to the commercial position.
我將讓卡米拉來討論商業立場。
Camilla Sylvest - Executive Vice President - Commercial Strategy and Corporate Affairs
Camilla Sylvest - Executive Vice President - Commercial Strategy and Corporate Affairs
Yes.
是的。
Hello there, Martin.
你好,馬丁。
So there's no doubt that there's a very big unmet need in this area, and we expect that around 22 million people are living with MASH F2 to F4.
因此,毫無疑問,該領域存在非常大的未滿足需求,我們預計約有 2,200 萬人正在使用 MASH F2 至 F4。
And this is, of course, in the US alone.
當然,這只是在美國。
So no doubt that there is a big unmet need.
因此,毫無疑問,存在著巨大的未滿足需求。
We, of course, expect that in the last few years, there's been a better understanding of the importance of treating serious chronic diseases related also to obesity.
當然,我們期望在過去幾年中,人們對治療與肥胖相關的嚴重慢性疾病的重要性有了更好的認識。
And we know that, of course, also diagnostic space has a big impact here.
當然,我們知道診斷空間在這裡也有很大的影響。
So of course, that in itself is something that we're also focusing on from a commercial point of view via partnerships to make sure that the diagnostics are in place, both, you can say, blood-based but also scanning based so that we don't have to rely on only liver biopsies.
當然,這本身也是我們從商業角度透過合作關係來關注的事情,以確保診斷到位,既可以說基於血液,也可以基於掃描,以便我們不必僅依賴肝臟活檢。
But of course, it's important that all of this works out towards the launch.
但當然,重要的是所有這些都有助於發布。
So I think all in all, we feel that here, we have an important asset that can make a big difference in an area where they previously has been very limited treatment.
所以我認為總而言之,我們覺得在這裡,我們擁有一項重要的資產,可以在以前受到非常有限的治療的領域中產生巨大的變化。

And then we'll go back to you, Martin, for question number two, malunivine data and how that informs us going forward?
然後我們會回到你,馬丁,詢問第二個問題,malunivine 數據以及它如何指導我們前進?
Martin Lange - Executive Vice President - Development
Martin Lange - Executive Vice President - Development
Yes, absolutely.
是的,絕對是。
So I can't speculate to what other people have been thinking about the mollunobant data.
所以我無法推測其他人對 mollunobant 數據的看法。
But I can tell you what we've been thinking about it.
但我可以告訴你我們一直在想什麼。
We have all long communicated two things.
我們長期以來一直在傳達兩件事。
First of all, obviously, we have a high focus on the safety aspects of this class of drugs.
首先,顯然我們高度關注此類藥物的安全性。
There is a history, and we need to make sure that we only introduce safe drugs into the market in this business and all other spaces.
這是有歷史的,我們需要確保我們只將安全的藥物引入這個行業和所有其他領域的市場。
And secondly, I think people tend to forget that we've all along to that and we would conduct a Phase IIb trial to really establish the safety profile of malunobant before we progress into further development.
其次,我認為人們往往會忘記我們一直在這樣做,並且在我們進行進一步開發之前,我們將進行 IIb 期試驗,以真正確定 malunobant 的安全性。
And we indicated that actually before we saw the data.
我們實際上在看到數據之前就指出了這一點。
Then we saw the data, and they actually confirmed that we saw a good efficacy profile of mollunovant.
然後我們看到了數據,他們實際上證實了我們看到了 mollunovant 的良好療效。
We also saw both gastrointestin, but also some neuropsychiatric events increasing with those.
我們也看到胃腸道事件以及一些神經精神事件也隨之增加。
On the efficacy part, it was very clear that we were high on the dose response and exposure response curve, indicating maybe that two high doses have been set from a clinical and from a commercial perspective.
在功效部分,很明顯我們在劑量反應和暴露反應曲線上都很高,這表明可能從臨床和商業角度設定了兩個高劑量。
And therefore, we can actually say that this works from a weight loss perspective, but we have to work with the dosing to mitigate potential safety issues.
因此,我們實際上可以說,從減肥的角度來看,這是有效的,但我們必須調整劑量,以減輕潛在的安全問題。
And that is exactly what we intend to do in the Phase IIb trial.
這正是我們打算在 IIb 期試驗中要做的事。
So from our perspective, still a potential.
所以從我們的角度來看,仍然有潛力。
It's still high risk.
風險還是很高的。
We communicated that all along as well.
我們也一直在傳達這一點。
But something that we will, as planned, continue to investigate further in the Phase IIb trial.
但我們將按計劃在 IIb 期試驗中繼續進一步研究。

My question firstly on marketing costs.
我的問題首先是關於行銷成本。
So you've been -- marketing costs were up 10% year-to-date, but up much more strongly in the third quarter.
年初至今,行銷成本上漲了 10%,但第三季的漲幅更為強勁。
I wonder if you could tell us how competitive you think the situation is in the US.
我想知道您能否告訴我們您認為美國的競爭情況如何。
Given there's such strong demand, but there is also increasing supply, how should we be thinking about your marketing costs going forward?
鑑於需求如此強勁,但供應也不斷增加,我們應該如何考慮您未來的行銷成本?
And I'm obviously thinking about your longer-term leverage here.
我顯然正在考慮你在這裡的長期影響力。
And within that, can I also ask your latest view on what proportion of the market is being served by compounded product.
其中,我還可以詢問您對複合產品所服務的市場比例的最新看法嗎?
So presumably, now that you are out of shortage in the US, you would be expecting that compounded market to go away.
因此,既然美國已經擺脫了短缺,那麼您可能會期望複合市場會消失。
So I'm just wondering if you can -- if you are confident that you can absorb that demand if it comes back to look at the brand product.
所以我只是想知道你是否可以——如果你有信心在回頭看品牌產品時能夠吸收這種需求。

Thank you for those two questions, Joe. For the first one, I'll hand over to Doug on the promotional efforts behind Wegovy.
謝謝你提出這兩個問題,喬。對於第一個問題,我將把 Wegovy 背後的推廣工作交給 Doug。
And after that, we turn to Lars for overall on compounding.

Thanks, Joe. I appreciate the question.
謝謝,喬。我很欣賞這個問題。
Maybe as a starting point, I'd like to say that certainly pleased with the overall efforts, and it was another strong quarter.
也許作為一個起點,我想說的是,我對整體努力當然感到滿意,這又是一個強勁的季度。
I mean we continue to see leadership and market access in both diabetes and obesity.
我的意思是,我們繼續看到糖尿病和肥胖症領域的領導地位和市場准入。
We're driving market growth in both segments.
我們正在推動這兩個領域的市場成長。
And I think that both products are performing well.
我認為這兩種產品都表現良好。
And to your question specifically, we'll continue to invest in those markets appropriately.
具體到你的問題,我們將繼續對這些市場進行適當的投資。
And I do believe that those investments are competitive and they are appropriate, and we continue to evaluate, and we invest as appropriate as we see the market growth.
我確實相信這些投資具有競爭力且是適當的,我們將繼續評估,並根據我們看到的市場成長進行適當的投資。

Then over to you, Lars, on compounding.
然後,拉斯,關於複利的事情就交給你了。
Lars Fruergaard Joergensen - President, Chief Executive Officer
Lars Fruergaard Joergensen - President, Chief Executive Officer
Yes.
是的。
Thank you, Jo, for the question.
謝謝喬提出的問題。
So I would say our first and foremost concern about compounding is really the product quality what patients are exposed to.
因此,我想說,我們對複合藥物的首要關注實際上是患者接觸到的產品品質。
And I think that's quite alarming what we see of safety reports, even hospitalization and death.
我認為我們看到的安全報告,甚至住院和死亡的情況非常令人震驚。
So we feel an obligation for taking action on this.
因此,我們感到有義務對此採取行動。
So patients who seek treatment and perhaps believe they're getting a quality product from Novo Nordisk is not misled And with that, say, believe, treat themselves for something that's potentially hampful.
因此,尋求治療並可能相信自己從諾和諾德獲得優質產品的患者不會被誤導。
So we have in dialogue with the FDA based on our increasing supply to the US of Wegovy, including increasing supply of the state doses agreed with the FDA that this is increasing to a magnitude where they can take away the drug shortage notification also on the state dose.
因此,我們與 FDA 進行了對話,基於我們增加對美國 Wegovy 的供應,包括增加州劑量的供應,FDA 同意,這已經增加到他們可以取消該州藥物短缺通知的程度劑量。
So we are off for all doses.
所以我們停止了所有劑量的接種。
And that, of course, means that we will see, say, an uptick in the US in the coming weeks in terms of supply.
當然,這意味著我們將在未來幾週內看到美國的供應量增加。
To your question about what share compounders take.
關於你關於複利者拿什麼股份的問題。
Honestly, we don't know.
老實說,我們不知道。
There are hundreds, if not thousands of potential compounders in the US, and we have limited visibility to what the supply my understanding is that it's primarily in, say, the Internet, say, direct-to-consumer space and we promote our products as products for people living with serious chronic disease.
在美國,即使不是數千家,也有數百家潛在的複合商,我們對供應的了解有限,我的理解是,它主要存在於互聯網、直接面向消費者的領域,我們將我們的產品推廣為為患有嚴重慢性疾病的人提供的產品。
And they should really be helped by insurance.
他們確實應該得到保險的幫助。
And I don't think these products are in the classical insurance channel.
我不認為這些產品屬於經典保險通路。
So we feel confident in our ability to scale and treat more and more patients.
因此,我們對擴大規模和治療越來越多患者的能力充滿信心。
But for us, it's really not about a business opportunity.
但對我們來說,這確實不是一個商業機會。
It's more about the safety for patients and no patient should believe that they get access to semaglutide and not being the case because we're the only one producing an approved version of semaglutide.
這更多的是關於患者的安全,任何患者都不應該相信他們可以獲得索馬魯肽,但事實並非如此,因為我們是唯一一家生產經批准版本的索馬魯肽的公司。

A couple, please.
請來一對。
So firstly, just a bit more color if possible on the ex-US supply of Ozempic and Wegovy in -- how we should think about that into the last quarter of the year and '25.
因此,首先,如果可能的話,對 Ozempic 和 Wegovy 在美國以外的供應情況進行更多描述——我們應該如何考慮今年最後一個季度和 25 年的情況。
Clearly, we've seen Wegovy with stocking in IO this quarter.
顯然,我們本季已經看到 Wegovy 在 IO 上備貨。
But how do you see sales developing for that?
但您如何看待這方面的銷售發展?
And also, Ozempic, it seems your supply constraints still when we can expect that those supply constraints to ease?
另外,Ozempic,當我們可以預期這些供應限制會有所緩解時,您的供應限制似乎仍然存在?
And then maybe one on amylin monotherapy starting the Phase III -- phase I trial, getting ahead of myself there.
然後也許是胰淀素單一療法開始第三階段-第一階段試驗,在那裡超越了自己。
How do you see the utility of this product relative to, say, CagriSema?
您如何看待該產品相對於 CagriSema 等產品的實用性?
And how have you changed the amylin relative to cagrilintide on its own?
您如何單獨改變胰淀素相對於卡格里林肽的作用?
Jacob Martin Rode - Head of Investor Relations

Firstly, to Karsten on Supply and IO and afterwards, we turn to Martin for amylin.
首先請Karsten 介紹Supply 和IO,然後請Martin 介紹胰淀素。
Karsten Munk Knudsen - Chief Financial Officer, Executive Vice President
Karsten Munk Knudsen - Chief Financial Officer, Executive Vice President
Yes.

Thanks for that question, Richard.
謝謝你提出這個問題,理查德。
And the starting point is when you look at our performance in the first nine months, we grew 24%.
首先,當你看看我們前 9 個月的表現時,我們成長了 24%。
And our guidance for the full year entails a midpoint of 25%.
我們對全年的指導值為 25% 的中點。
So as a consequence, then you should expect an acceleration going into the fourth quarter in terms of growth rates as well as absolute sales.
因此,您應該預期第四季度成長率和絕對銷售額都會加速。
And that acceleration will be driven by both units and what we've seen in the third quarter in IO with a very significant step-up for Wegovy sales.
這種加速將由這兩個部門以及我們在第三季度看到的 IO 推動,Wegovy 銷售額大幅成長。
It's pretty much a doubling compared to Q2, albeit with some tailwind from inventory movements, which are associated with launches.
與第二季相比,這一數字幾乎翻了一番,儘管與發布相關的庫存變動帶來了一些推動作用。
Then a nice acceleration in IO in the third quarter, now growing at 22% in the quarter and to get to Q4, even further acceleration into the fourth quarter.
然後,第三季度 IO 出現了良好的加速,現在該季度增長了 22%,到第四季度,甚至在第四季度進一步加速。
As to supply between Ozempic and Wegovy, then yes, you are correct.
至於 Ozempic 和 Wegovy 之間的供應,那麼是的,你是對的。
So far, IO has been constrained on Ozempic.
到目前為止,IO 一直受到 Ozempic 的限制。
On the other hand, you see 60%-plus sales growth for (inaudible) in IO.
另一方面,您會看到 IO 領域(聽不清楚)的銷售額成長了 60% 以上。
So that's kind of the portfolio play we're pursuing in that geography.
這就是我們在該地區追求的投資組合策略。
And then with now more than 15 Wegovy launches in IO, the momentum we are building there is, of course, rather substantial.
現在,隨著 Wegovy 在 IO 領域的推出超過 15 個,我們在那裡建立的勢頭當然是相當強勁的。

As you know, we have a strategy that says that we address both diabetes, but specifically obesity with a holistic approach, building the broadest possible pipeline to cater to individual patient needs.
如您所知,我們的策略是透過整體方法解決糖尿病問題,特別是肥胖問題,建立盡可能廣泛的管道來滿足患者的個別需求。
These are complex diseases.
這些都是複雜的疾病。
And it's very, very clear also if you take the analogy from GLP-1, you can always address the same biology with slightly different modalities.
而且非常非常清楚的是,如果您採用 GLP-1 進行類比,您始終可以用略有不同的方式來解決相同的生物學問題。
Our own analogy is moving from liraglutide to semaglutide changing the pharmacokinetics and thereby also the pharmacodynamics in a beneficial way.
我們自己的類比是從利拉魯肽轉向索馬魯肽,改變了藥物動力學,從而以有益的方式改變了藥效學。
The MLL biology is at least at the receptor level, even more complex than GLP-1.
MLL生物學至少在受體層面上,甚至比GLP-1更複雜。
And therefore, to build a broader pipeline of different generations of Amlin assets is prudent.
因此,建立更廣泛的不同世代 Amlin 資產的管道是謹慎的。
I think it's too early to speculate before we've seen any clinical data where and how we would see that being positioned.
我認為在我們看到任何臨床數據之前推測我們將在哪裡以及如何定位它還為時過早。

First for Martin on CagriSema.

I know that everybody is focused on weight loss.
我知道大家都在關注減肥。
But Martin, could you share with us what kind of tolerance profile you're looking for this product as based on sales data from diabetes patients.
但是馬丁,您能否根據糖尿病患者的銷售數據與我們分享您正在尋找該產品的耐受性概況。
We see that there is increased efficacy on weight loss, but also in this level of nausea or gastrointestinal adverse event with the combination of CagriSema versus the individual component.
我們發現,與單獨的成分相比,CagriSema 的組合不僅可以提高減肥效果,而且可以減少噁心或胃腸道不良事件的發生。
So could you share with us what kind of level of side effects had effects you're all looking for?
那麼您能否與我們分享您所尋求的副作用達到什麼程度呢?
Will it be the same vein as mantra or higher?
它會與咒語同脈或更高級嗎?

We are still basing all of our assumptions on data derived from Phases I and II.
我們的所有假設仍然基於第一階段和第二階段的數據。
Based on what we know and based on how we understand the biology, as you said yourself, we expect to see really unsurpassed weight loss.
根據我們所知道的以及我們對生物學的理解,正如您自己所說,我們期望看到真正無與倫比的減肥效果。
At this point in time, we expect to see good glycemic control in type 2 diabetes together with a strong weight loss.
目前,我們預期第 2 型糖尿病患者的血糖將得到良好控制,同時體重也會大幅下降。
And based on what we've seen so far, that will come with a safety and tolerability profile broadly in line with what we see with GLP-1 treatment.
根據我們迄今為止所看到的情況,其安全性和耐受性與我們所看到的 GLP-1 治療大致一致。

Can you quantify the rebate adjustments that you mentioned in the press release for Q3 specifically with regard to products, if you are willing to do that?
如果您願意的話,您能否量化您在第三季新聞稿中提到的特別針對產品的回扣調整?
And then also Wegovy stocking mentioned in the US regions in Q3.
然後也提到了第三季在美國地區的 Wegovy 備貨。
Should we expect this to reverse in Q4?
我們是否應該預期這種情況會在第四季出現逆轉?
Or is this still -- should we expect stocking to continue to build from a year?
或者這仍然是——我們是否應該預期庫存會繼續增加一年?
It sounds like your commentary with regard to underlying IO growth still very positive.
聽起來您對潛在 IO 成長的評論仍然非常積極。
So just looking to understand the magnitude of that stocking and your expectations going forward?
那麼只是想了解庫存的規模以及您對未來的期望嗎?

Thank you, Kerry, over to you, Karsten, for one-offs in the quarter, US and IO.
謝謝你,Kerry,交給你了,Karsten,在本季美國和 IO 的一次性工作。
Karsten Munk Knudsen - Chief Financial Officer, Executive Vice President
Karsten Munk Knudsen - Chief Financial Officer, Executive Vice President
Yes.
是的。
So as to gross to net adjustments in the quarter, it's largely neutral.
至於本季的毛淨調整,基本上是中性的。
So the quarter, you should see as slightly neutral in terms of gross to net adjustments.
因此,本季的總調整與淨調整應略有中性。
We do have negative adjustments on Victoza related to prior periods driven by higher exposure towards Medicaid in the US.
由於美國醫療補助曝險增加,我們確實對 Victoza 進行了與前期相關的負面調整。
And on the other hand, then we have some favorability mainly on Ozempic, but net-net, broadly neutral in the quarter.
另一方面,我們主要對 Ozempic 有一些好感,但本季總體上是中性的。
And so the second question with regards to IO and Wegovy.
第二個問題是關於 IO 和 Wegovy 的。
This is just to call out that this was not end-user consumption, but that we have a stocking in connection with the launches we're pursuing in national operations.
這只是為了指出這不是最終用戶消費,而是我們有與我們在國家運營中追求的發布相關的庫存。
So we do not expect a major reversal of inventories into Q4.
因此,我們預計第四季度庫存不會出現重大逆轉。
But of course, it's -- we cannot continue to build inventories in connection with launches unless they're new launches.
但當然,我們不能繼續建立與發布相關的庫存,除非它們是新發布的。
So just noting that it's a one-off positive impact in the quarter.
因此,請注意,這是本季一次性的正面影響。
That's the way to think about it.
這就是思考的方式。

I have two questions, please.
我有兩個問題,請問。
So firstly, at the C&D earlier this year, Novo shared that grid is sourced externally through CDMO contracts.
首先,在今年稍早的 C&D 上,Novo 表示,電網是透過 CDMO 合約從外部採購的。
So in light of what appears to be a very likely commercial launch roughly a year from now.
因此,鑑於大約一年後很可能會進行商業發布。
I wanted to ask if external the most sourcing of CAG remains the plan.
我想問一下,CAG 的大部分採購是否仍然是外部採購計劃。
And while producing CAGR in-house, it's not critical in light of the experience from semaglutide.
雖然內部產生複合年增長率,但鑑於索馬魯肽的經驗,這並不重要。
And then secondly, I wonder if you could remind me, assuming antitrust authorities, for whatever reasons, did decide to try and block the Catalant transaction, what flexibility do you have in that plan B to scale up capacity as quickly as possible, not least in light of constraints or expertise in setting up these sites?
其次,我想知道你是否可以提醒我,假設反壟斷機構出於某種原因確實決定嘗試阻止 Catalant 交易,那麼你在 B 計劃中擁有什麼靈活性來盡快擴大產能,尤其是考慮到建立這些網站的限製或專業知識?

Thank you, Mattias.
謝謝你,馬蒂亞斯。
And both of those to you, Karsten firstly, on Cakesema supply chain and then on Catalent.
Karsten,這兩個都是你的,首先是 Cakesema 供應鏈,然後是 Catalent。
Karsten Munk Knudsen - Chief Financial Officer, Executive Vice President
Karsten Munk Knudsen - Chief Financial Officer, Executive Vice President
Yes.
是的。
Thank you for those questions, Mattias.
謝謝你提出這些問題,馬蒂亞斯。
It's correct that the CAG component we source externally, and that's basically based on a consideration around capabilities and manufacturing footprints.
我們從外部採購 CAG 組件是正確的,這基本上是基於對能力和製造足蹟的考慮。
So it's rational choice.
所以這是理性的選擇。
And of course, we take historic learnings with us in terms of ensuring that we have a resilient setup into the future for our external sourcing approaches, including cagri-semaglutide.
當然,我們吸取了歷史教訓,確保我們的外部採購方法(包括卡格里索馬魯肽)在未來擁有彈性的設定。
Then secondly, on Catalent and the so-called Plan B, yes, that we do have, that's part of running business when you don't have hundreds of certainty.
其次,關於 Catalent 和所謂的 B 計劃,是的,我們確實有,這是當你沒有數百個確定性時經營業務的一部分。
And this is really a question about continuing to scale the way we've been scaling in the past few years.
這實際上是一個關於繼續以過去幾年的方式擴展的問題。
So really driving more output from our internal supply chain as well as continue to contract the external capacity should we get into that situation.
因此,如果我們遇到這種情況,確實會從我們的內部供應鏈中推動更多產出,並繼續收縮外部產能。

And once again, I would like to thank Doug for his exceptional leadership over quite some years of our US operations.
我要再次感謝道格多年來對我們美國業務的卓越領導。
And wish Dave more good luck as his successor.
並祝戴夫作為他的繼任者好運。
As we've spoken about, Novo Nordisk is in a strong growth momentum, and that's driven by our GLP-1 products, both in diabetes and obesity.
正如我們所說,諾和諾德正處於強勁的成長勢頭,這得益於我們在糖尿病和肥胖症方面的 GLP-1 產品。
And I hope it's also clear to all of you that we are scaling significantly to train this attractive growth profile in the coming years.
我希望大家也清楚,我們正在大幅擴展規模,以在未來幾年培養這種有吸引力的成長態勢。
And we also have very exciting Phase III readouts later this year.
今年稍後我們還將發布非常令人興奮的第三階段數據。
So we look forward to sharing those data with you in the future and to have robust discussions around that.
因此,我們期待將來與您分享這些數據,並圍繞這些數據進行深入的討論。
So with that, thank you again for your interest, and we hereby close the call.
